A loss is guaranteed in each person's life, hence, every individual will succumb to grief at some point of their life. Each individual grieve in their own way. Based on my clinical and personal experience, the depth of the grieving often center around the emotional attachment to the item or individual lost. Grief should not be timed, however, each year the pain of the loss lessons but never completely dissipate.
At Victoria Counseling, you will receive grief therapy that is individualized to you taking into account your values and belief system.

Grief and loss can be about death of a loved one. Grieving offers us a challenge and an opportunity. It is a process of letting go of who and what was lost as we integrate that person and our memories into our present lives.
Grief can also be about letting go and changing patterns that no longer serve us. Therapy offers a place to learn new and more healthy strategies to care for ourselves and engage in relationships.

Ellen S Leventhal, MEd., MS, LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

All individuals, if they live enough years, experience the death of a significant other. However, not all bereavement occurs due to a loss from death, yet the emotional pain can be as severe if not worse. Separation, divorce, ambiguous loss, chronic or terminal illness, or loss of status (e.g., financial or social) also involve a grieving process for individuals, couples or families. Many times, the repercussions of a loss are manifested in other presenting problems, such as school or behavioral problems in children and relational discord in couples.
Working this through in a safe therapeutic environment will help you develop a new identity, and reestablish balance in you relationships.
